Switching to and from the internal key management method

You can switch to internal key management from the existing methods (key servers or USB flash drives) or switch from internal key management to external methods without impacting the encrypted objects and data.

Ensure that the encryption recovery key is available for validation if configured on the system. Without validating the encryption recovery key, the migration between key management methods cannot be performed.
Note: Switching to internal key management method disables the currently enabled external method. This does not disable or regenerate the encryption recovery key.

Before you initiate migration (switch) to internal key management method, make sure that the internal key management is accessible.

To switch to internal key management from the existing methods (key servers or USB flash drives) or switch from the internal key management to external methods, go to Settings > Security > Encryption panel in the management GUI and select Edit encryption method.
